  3. Project Background Project Mandate Deliver best in class balanced, low VOC DTM resins Lower VOC demands result in higher technical complexity in an effort to maintain full balance of properties Interplay between adhesion and corrosion prompted in depth structure/property investigation Performance Tradeoffs Lower T g (or low VOC plasticizer) to lower VOC reduces hardness and block resistance Some formulation mitigations available, but not ideal – Fluorosurfactants

Adhesion to Steel Lewis Acid Sites Lewis Base Sites OH OH + O - OH 2 OH + + + C Fe Fe Fe C Fe Fe Fe C Fe • Provided sufficient wetting is present, acid/base interactions, ionic interactions and van der Waals forces considered of primary importance 1 • Isoelectric point of steel difficult to pinpoint, but likely around pH ~8-9 • As ammonia evaporates and pH drops, cationic sites arise allowing for electrostatic interactions • Mechanical interlocking also significant in blasted substrates 1 Fowkes, F.M., J Polym Sci J Polym Chem Ed, 1984 , 22, 547

  7. Corrosion Process - Steel Requires O 2 – Water – O 2 (CO 2 , or other reducible species) – Electrolytic pathway Fe 2+ + 2OH - Fe(OH) 2 Water 4Fe(OH) 2 + O 2 Fe 2 O 3 •xH 2 O Fe 2+ + 2e - Fe Red Rust Cathode Cathode Anode O 2 + 2H 2 O + 4e - 4OH - O 2 + 4H + + 4e - 2H 2 O e - e - Fe 2+ + 2H 2 O Fe(OH) 2 + 2H + Possible mechanisms of corrosion prevention • Block water penetration Barrier Properties • O 2 transport inhibition • Adhesion – surface passivation, exclusion of water, etc • Interference with electrolytic pathway – coating resistance

  8. Literature Review S. Guruviah, JOCCA , 53, 1970, 660; P. Kresse, Pigment Resin Barrier Tech, 2(11), 1973, 21 Properties – O 2 transport limiting factor in corrosion protection J. Mayne, Corrosion , 1976, pp15:24-15:37; Bacon, et al, Ind Eng Chem , 40(1), 1948, 161 – Films generally too permeable for barrier properties to be Impedance important – Inhibition of galvanic cell via a high film resistance which impedes electrolyte transport most important factor W. Funke, H. Haagen, Ind Eng Chem Prod Res Dev , 17, 1978, 50; Adhesion E. Parker, H. Gerhart, Ind Eng Chem , 59(8), 1967, 53 – Loss of adhesion leads to onset of corrosion See appendix for further reading suggestions

  9. Electrolytic Resistance • Study of 300 coatings showed resistance thresholds of ~10 8 Ohm for the best coatings and at least ~10 6 Ohm for fair performance Ind Eng Chem, 40(1), 1948, 161-167 • Coating resistance falls with increasing electrolyte concentration Maitland CC, Mayne JEO, Official Digest, Sept 1962 • Inverse study between ion exchange capacity and corrosion resistance of film Ulfvarson, U and Khullar, M, JOCCA , 54, 604, 1971 Acrylic film as ion exchange system

  10. Study Description • 21 internal and external styrenated acrylic systems • Wide variety of performance capabilities, Tg’s , MFFTs, etc • Formulated into single clear formulation – adjusted coalescent level for MFFT • Evaluated in a number of performance tests to develop a film property/corrosion model

  22. Impact of P:B or PVC 48hr P/B = 0 P/B = 2 285 hr P/B = 0 P/B = 2 Corrosion resistance decreases with increasing P/B ratio (reproduced with other resins) Possible explanations: 1. Increased porosity with increasing P/B ratio; liquid water uptake increases 2. Interfacial layer around the pigment particles facilitates water migration and increases diffusion

  23. PVC On Liquid Water Uptake • Increasing PVC increases water uptake 1 • Decreasing particle size increases water Wet cup method uptake 1 – Related to surface area • Dispersant/pigment interface identified as coating weak point 1 • Liquid water uptake can also be measured by EIS – related to corrosion resistance • Acrylic coatings can take months to achieve final barrier properties 1 NMR method 1 Donkers, PA et al, Proc. of Europ.
